WOW!!!..This Is On The Market Already??

Post by gramophone78 »

A super rare "featured" Phono is now available (although a different owner). Someone has the chance to buy what may be a "one of". http://forum.talkingmachine.info/viewto ... =2&t=22666

:shock: My guess is that he received an offer he could not refuse.

I would have liked to add it to my collection. I had seen the machine for sale at various shows over the years.

I also saw it at Union several times. It was always incomplete and dirty but the potential was obvious. I could never understand why the seller presented it in its former condition. It certainly looks outstanding now. Jerry

I rarely, if ever, take on major restoration projects and that is why I too passed on this one in years gone by. But once I saw the end result, I knew it would be a fine addition to my collection.

Bob does fantastic restorations as is obvious from the pics. I too saw the machine in it's "before" state. Just amazing.
